What's the feeling on the Kirby New Gods Superman? I find I'm drawn to it but I haven't seen it live.

And they even put the Kirby Superman "S" the way he drew it. Which is a touch I just noticed. Pretty nice.

I continue to fight the urge to buy that NEW GODS SUPERMAN
everytime I see it at the shop.
My main desire is to customize it into a JACK KIRBY REED RICHARDS.
Every time I look at it, I see Mr. Fantastic.
It'd be SO easy.

Those Kirby New Gods look fine but i don't think those Kirby type lines work well on them but i still like them Paul!

I recently found the Watchmen 6" figures. The sculpts, likenesses and paint apps look superior to DC Direct's previous lines, and to most action figures in general. I didn't buy them (not a fan). Hopefully DCD's future product will look this good as well.

••

The Powers That Were at DC had all the Superman faces redrawn in Kirby's
Fourth World books -- but the Powers That Be are selling a "Kirby" Superman
(which, apparently, means "really ugly" to them)?

I must snap up one of these for my special Hypocrisy shelf!

Based on the pics you have been posting, Jesse, you have quite a backlog on
your hands.

Can't wait to see final pics.

Dwayne, I'm SO far behind it's not funny, and Wonderfest is only 7 weeks away!!!

I'm going to have to call in some favors from a few paint master freinds of mine, because I've never painted anything with unnatural skin tones before, so I'm absolutely clueless as to how to mix the proper colors.
